If you're gonna have garbage to stream, might as well put on whatever random garbage at random time automatically so I don't waste time trying to decide on stuff I ultimately don't care about.

Plus you get some live news, though mostly rightwing crap depending on where you live and also you can stream some stuff on demand

Edit: having top gear, some comedy central stuff, southpark and csi channels for reruns is neat and they don't seem to care if you use VPN to watch US/UK/Canadian content (not sure where else it's available)

at this point it sounds like television with extra steps

Pluto is like TV used to be. You turn on the TV and it's on the channel you last watched. There is no step 2.

If you want to scroll through endless categories looking for something specific to watch like a streaming service, it has that too.

But I frequently turn on the DS9 channel and leave it on all day despite having all the episodes on my Plex.

That's exactly what it is, I've grown tired of streaming services, heaps of complete irrelevant content suggestions, so Pluto+torrents are much more convenient for random TV or stuff I actually want to watch and don't have to figure out which streaming service has it.
